    Yes, I do. I don't have any insight for you but keep hauling it if it pays your bills. I have never seen any proof that it would.

    It's Amazon, they're going to cut every penny out of their cost they can, including canceling your money load at last minute because somebody else offered to do it for half price. I would look for other freight to haul, I only see them getting cheaper as your cost of doing buisness goes up, but that's just me and what do I know.

    When I see a driver doing something really stupid, it used to be the sole territory of the megas or fedwrex. Now, when I see the aforementioned intellectually challenged, I see them pulling an Amazon trailer. You get what you pay for. I wonder how much Amazon spends on claims that they could save by upping their rates and giving loads to competent drivers?

    Do fedwrex trucks roll over on command, or is it more of a spontaneous thing now?

    To the OP, questioning the worthiness of Amazon loads is your first step in the right direction. Keep progressing.
